Much of the construction consists of high-quality teak wood, known for its durability and warm, golden hue. Artfully hand-carved teak elements, crafted by local artisans, adorn walls, doors, and furniture, adding an authentic cultural touch to the premises. The resort features a total of 226 stylishly furnished rooms spread across several charming buildings. The inviting reception area with comfortable seating welcomes guests warmly. Culinary delights are offered at the resort's seven restaurants, providing a diverse selection of international and Thai specialties. The resort serves delicious dishes and refreshing drinks in a stylish bar, which is the perfect place for relaxing and social hours.
